I like how vegans are happy to downvote me without refuting a single line of logic... because you know I'm right, you just don't want to admit it.

Thus revealing the real reason most vegans are vegan; most of you care more about feeling superior to everyone else than about finding realistic solutions to the problems you conveniently blame others for.

Factory farming is terrible but we don't all need to be vegan to end those practices.

Outside of that, if you consider normal killing for food 'terrible', then all animals do terrible things to animals. That's just life.

Humans are animals too, the difference is we evolved the capacity for guilt and projecting ourselves into the future to imagine the effects of climate change.

Those are why I don't eat red meat and eat vegetarian once a week. If everyone did that we wouldn't need factory farms and we also wouldn't need to be vegan.

This is getting too philosophical.

You're getting downvoted but my friend is a 5th grade school teacher in California and confirmed to me that for years now when her students get to 5th grade they can't read or even sound out basic words and she's required to keep passing them to middle school.

Teachers all over the US are saying kids can't read. Combined with the fact that teachers have to strictly follow their curriculums which are not designed for these kids, that means American kids will continue to not develop literacy skills. IMO it's a valid question to ask: what are we doing about that?

Great stuff! Disappointing that the article didn't mention how they managed to get on the tarmac.

Lol you're not wrong it's just funny that rather than upholding quality standards Google is injecting it straight into the top of your search results.

It's hilariously bad that they don't care it's literally conflicting with itself. This came up for me yesterday:

Is the 9th triangular number 36 or 45? who knows?

idk why you're getting downvoted, I haven't seen any scientists or doctors refute the study or claim there's reason to believe this medicine won't work.

for real, I'm pro trans rights and I still sometimes accidentally deadname Elliot Page because I have dyscalculia. if you ban me for that aren't you being ableist?

also yes context is very important.

if I say "when Caitlyn went by the name [X], and she used [Y] pronoun, [Z] thing happened to [Y]", I assume I will still get banned for deadnaming even though I'm innocently adding clarity to a conversation.

to make things worse, if someone is trans and gender fluid, and I call them by a name or pronoun they used last time I knew about them, now I've committed a crime of which I had no knowledge.

this blanket condemnation of deadnaming is just dumb. it requires nuance.
